“Overall the ladies seem more comfortable and wake up more refreshed than when using mats. Plus, being off the floor is healthier and more hygienic. I am writing as most of guests are asleep and the lights off so I didn’t get around the thank you notes, but in terms of gratitude, the feeling is the present and the expression essential.”

We have collected approximately half of the monies so far and donations continue to arrive. Thank you to all for your wonderful donations! We hope you enjoy these photos of Delivery Day as much as we do!

Other Donations: All the toiletry items and clothing have been gratefully received and are meeting the current needs. Thank you to everyone who participates in this Mission Outreach Project.

Here is an updated list of the current needs:Toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouthwash, disposable razors, towels, hand towel, wash cloth. Old dish cloths or towels to be used as rags. Two card tables to play games on.

The shelter is decorated with inspirational art, including a photograph of Dorothy herself, seen between policemen and with farmworkers behind her (right).

25 Cots have been delivered in response to Director Patricia’s wish list! Everyone at Dorothy's Place had many thanks and praise for those who supported and donated the cots.
